Topic: Is there a need for repetative info?

Just was wondering if there was a need or reason why when recieving a comment, and/or friend requests, do we have to be notified in our inbox along with the notification under new comments, and/or friend requests. It just seems very redundant to have to delete 2 messages for 1 notification. I know it isnt a big deal, but some get alot of comments/friend requests and having to delete 2 messages is aggrevating. Is there a reason for this?

When someone posts a comment on something of yours, you get a notification in your inbox. If you have email notifications turned on, you get notified by email too. In case someone does NOT have email notifications on, or they missed an email, all notifications are kept in the inbox regardless.

We also group all of your "pending" things together, such as comments and requests. Whether you use those links to view the pending stuff or not, you always have a copy in your inbox. So the redundancy is only perceptual. You have a notice in your inbox, and the pending stuff is also listed under "comments" or "requests."

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car. Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall. Torque is how far you take the wall with you.
